Somewhere in all this, it seemed, was a blueprint for how to commune with nature: Be Bullheaded. Never let the fact that you're having a horrible time of things get in the way of the good times. The wonder of your surroundings always outshines the specifics of your difficulties. Never admit that you're cold, lost, hungry, or hurt. Never admit that something sucks. Ignore adversity. It'll go away. Hardship, it turns out, is the spice. With sufficient underplanting and a good dash of stubborness, a jaunt in the Cascades can be every bit as life changing as a Himalayan expedition.
